Full Discussion: Writing an HTML file in perl
Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Writing an HTML file in perl Post 302811971 by DGPickett on Friday 24th of May 2013 04:23:19 PM

Not so big on css, but if you put data into html, you must scrub all <>"'& to: &lt; &gt; &quot; &apos; &amp; And do & first. Now, I think perl has calls to do this, so if you used them, my apologies.

Tables: Decide to use <TABLE> or <PRE>, not both. Since <PRE> is fixed pitch, you can make nice columns with padding, but no borders and shading. I have had great success with <PRE> tables for bulk data presentation, as it is cheap on the browser side typesetting, whereas <TABLE> needs to typeset everything before it can set column widths.

Can you show us an output document?
